More than 40 illegal miners have so far been arrested during a high-level multidisciplinary operation, targeting illegal mining operations on Gauteng’s West Rand.

The operation is being spearheaded by Police Minister Bheki Cele, together with Gauteng Provincial Commissioner Elias Mawela and the Hawks.This follows the brutal gang rape of eight women in West Village, Krugersdorp, on Thursday last week. The women who were part of a production crew, shooting a music video, were attacked by a gang of men believed to be illegal miners.

The police’s Colonel Dave Davis elaborates, “We planned this operation today because of all the zama zamas that are taking over the West Village and the region of Krugersdorp and we arrested more or less 42 people today. We seized about 32 cell phones. What we see here is gold bearing material that they steal from the mines and then they wash it down on tables and clothes and then they wash the clothes and find the gold material and then you get your gold and it’s then sent into the market.

I’m gradually making more earnings now in my trades but with the aid of a trader that was recommended and now I'm recommending her to y'all EliDonovan01

Tinkerbel246810 Tell the law enforcement agencies that the illegal miners are not only in Gauteng. Tell them to lift their game.

They are not only illegal mining they are also illegal immigrants 😭😭😭💔💔💔

It's not enough, Human Rights council estimated 30000 illegal miners, that was back in 2015, I'm sure it's 100 000 by now
